Lookie-lookie

Tuesday Comic Strip Day.

A long time ago Barney Google was one of the biggest strips in the newspaper. Although the style may be out of date, the quality isn't. Here are some of the Sundays and dailies I collected, along with a few early ones I scanned myself.

You can get a good Yoe edition of one of Barney's Classic adventures here:

Ebay Sales

I am slowly selling my comics, cartoon and newspaper collection on Ebay. In short, when I am done scanning them and they are on the blog, I no longer need to keep the original paper. If you want to go and have a look what I have on sale now, please go to http://www.ebay.com/sch/gerapeldoorn/m.html?item=152381924308&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562. Prices are low and I combine for shipping.

The Number One Research Site

I have been doing this blog for more than seven years now. I find more and more that it is used by comic book, newspaper strip and cartoon historians as a tool for their research or additional illustrations. And I encourage that. I have larger uncleaned scans for all self scanned images on this blog for those want to use it for their book or article. Just ask and we'll get something going. Family members of artists mentioned here or anyone who is interested in donating scans is encouraged to make contact. By the way, the quickest way to reach me these days is through Facebook.
